    You can sync with iTunes, but need to install software.

    iTunes' Album Art is Apple-only, so it won't work.

    8GB expected release on March 1st, 2007.
    Can't wait to play with the Meizu MX!

    Album art is still in the works.
    And for now it only works, if you put the images there yourself.

    also note that your Itunes AAC songs will NOT work on any player but an Ipod

    If you'd read my previous post, you'd know that you CAN sync Meizu with iTunes.

    like Eror said... itunes IS possible
    what is not possible though is o play Itunes music store songs on the Meizu
    Songs bought from the Itunes music store have DRM on it. Unfortunately this means they can only be played on the ipod.
    Note that this only goes for the Itunes songs you BOUGHT.
    The other songs you have in Itunes will work normally on your Meizu

    There are many programs that allows this, an example is iTunes Agent.

    I tried iTunes Agent once. It's clunky but it works. However it's important to emphasize the point that it does not work with iTunes DRM.

    What I do with iTunes purchased music is burn the music on CD and Rip it in WMP. :D

    I dunno. iTunes agent is a bit quirky at times. That's how I ended up using WMP.

    If you're on a Mac you can use this applescript I wrote to transfer your playlists.
